Topoisomerase : Cause single strand breaks and religation. Helicase: Unwounds a portion of the DNA Double Helix. 

RNA Primase : Attaches RNA primers to the replicating strands. 

DNA Polymerase delta (δ) : Binds to the 5′ – 3′ strand in order to bring nucleotides and synthesise the daughter leading strand. 

DNA Polymerase epsilon (a): Binds to the 3′ – 5′ strand in order to synthesise discontinuous segments starting from different RNA primers.

Exonuclease (DNA Polymerase I): Identifies and removes the RNA Primers. 

DNA Ligase : Adds phosphate in the remaining gaps of the phosphate – sugar backbone. 

Nucleases : Remove wrong nucleotides from the daughter strand.
